Journalism

My reporting sits at the intersection of law, power, and lived experience. I specialize in deep-dive investigations, justice sector coverage, gender and labor issues, and explanatory storytelling with bite. 

 

Fast turnaround or long-form, I’m driven by a thirst for truth, clarity, fairness, and unshakable curiosity.
